Is Iodinised salt still sold?

Question

It was always on the breakfast table when I was younger in the fifties.

Answer 1

Almost all salt is iodized as it is necessary for the thyroid glands.
Sea salt, however is not iodized.

Answer 2

In most countries the government requires that most salt be Iodized. This is due to the fear that many children will not have a sufficient supply of iodine in their diet from other sources such as fish. Iodine is vital for the correct functioning of the thyroid gland.

Answer 3

Yes.Table salt is still iodized. Virtually all salt sold in the store is iodized. You have to specifically look for non-iodized salt. Typically sea salt, picling salt, and canning salt do not have iodine.

Answer 4

Most of the salt sold in developed countries is iodized. The Iodide in the salt is important because it alows your thyroid gland to generate the hormone thyroxine.

Answer 5

Yes, you should use iodized salt for the table still. Leslie in the USA (umbrella girl) has both kinds so look at the container.

Answer 6

Basically all free-flowing salt includes iodine, it usually only says it in the fine-print. Its neccessary for the clotting process of the blood so its become included in the production of most table salts that you buy. I think it is so usual to include it that they've stopped writing it large on the labels.
